[目的/意义]调研中外科研人员对社交网络的认知情况,对学术工作者使用社交网络的目的、动机和需求开展比较研究。[方法/过程]利用问卷调查法收集来自国内各大高校707位被调查者对社交网络的认知、使用动机和访问信息,并将问卷调查结果与Nature研究结果进行比较。[结果/结论]结果显示,我国科研人员对学术社交网络的使用率和使用意识并不是很高,国内科研人员比较倾向于使用以社交型为导向的网站,对以学术型为导向的网站使用较少。国外主流ASNS平台中,我国用户对ResearchGate具有一定的认知度。
[Purpose/significance] This paper investigates the cognition of Chinese and foreign researchers on social networking, and makes a comparative study on the purpose, motivation and needs of academic workers using social networks. [Method/process] Based on questionnaires, users’ awareness of social networks, use motivation, and access information, and so on from 707 Chinese respondents are collected. The results are compared with the investigation from Nature. [Result/conclusion] The result shows that Chinese scholars are not very aware of the use of the SNS, and tend to use Google Scholar. In foreign main SNS platforms, Chinese scholars have a certain degree of awareness of ResearchGate. In addition, Chinese scholars mainly use SNS to acquire academic information and less for more important functions, such as research cooperation and communication.
